If you are buying a property with a friend or as part of an unmarried couple, it might be wise to make a Declaration of Trust.

A Declaration of Trust can clarify:

the amount of the deposit each person will pay

the amount that each person will contribute towards mortgage payments

the amount that each person will contribute towards fees

and the portion of the property that each person will own.

Macks Solicitors’ residential property team can provide expert advice on Declarations of Trust.
